What a song in the beginning...I got this bitter taste of sadness. At the same time though, I think the tone fits with this series given some of its other themes.

The other song was decent though. TRANSFORMATION. Oh I miss this. These girls sure has power
So I can tell this series decides not to waste time at all for its first episode. Dat action in the beginning

Oh and I like some of these new idols which I think will also be rivals. Pretty :3

Any anime that pays homage to Heavy Metal aka weapons mode Megadeath Play(Megadeath) and Iron Billion(Iron Maiden) gets my vote!LOL nobody caught that.BTW what a way to start Season 2

Some big crash bang booms to start the episode really.I use Sennheiser Headphones and I felt rumbling even without my headphone amp.First anime that ever did that.Having surround sound with a sub-woofer would rattle I think Hibiki and Chris just rocked.BTW the Noise is nasty as always.Tsubasa is cool as always but has to deal with Maria Cadenzavna Eve the new antagonist

Black Gungnir
Could either be a another Fragment from when the original shattered or the bad guys have some way of mimicking the original relics.

As for Professor Ver
brief moment of Crazy eyes kind of gives away his role in events

and of course the name of the evil organization opens a lot of questions.

For BG, I truly hope its the former option. If they just managed to copy it, that would tick me off because it seems like nothing more than a bullcrap plotline pulled out of the writer's butt JUST to make a Season 2. At least if its an actual piece it makes sense.

Personally, I guess BG

is more of a projection of the original one from another world line compared to what Greylurker guessed, as if I remembered correctly, those noise are from another (universe/phase ?), and as Fiñe is a soul from ancient age, imo time-universe structure may related to future development of the story.

p.s. when i reading a subtitle file of the show with file name [Commie], I read a line like this:

Dialogue:0,00:12:03.66,0:12:06.76,tsubasa small,,0,0,0,,{\fad(120,120)\blur3}I set this night sky ablaze{have someone look at this later. this is probably wrong as f**k

And I found similar thibgs from a subtitle file labelled as [DeadFish]. So if the line translated correctly and what are the relationship between these two files?
